Paranoia and criticism, how it was meant and how it is taken

WEBINAR:On-Demand

"I have seen 'rational' Linux users who can say they like a
distro, find pro's and con's about it, even if it's one of their
favorites and move on along to the next topic.

"Then I see the users who feel they must emotionally attach
themselves to one distro and do everything they can to promote,
'sell' and otherwise defend in the face of "criticism" every chance
they have.

"Let's talk criticism and what's "fair" and "unfair".

"unfair" criticism. it doesn't provide reason or rationale and is
designed primarily to evoke strong emotional responses. Typically
used by 'trolls'."
